10 Hour Takeover

I love this today. No playlist tracks involved unlike other days. Some great promotion for BFBS. And some great stuff for the troops like they used to do on a regular basis back in the 60s and 70s. Plus the music is really good!

I switch on and what's the first thing I hear, bloody GLEE's version of Don't Stop Believin'... I'll stick with it though as it can only go up from there. Surely that's been playlist too recently (or might still be on one of the playlists now?) for playing today?

Anyone know if they've played Ray Parker Jr - Ghostbusters yet? They always seem to do that on 10HTs and it's very welcome.

Even with McFly in there, that sounds like a fantastic hour of music. Not the obvious choice of Prodigy song either, refreshing :D

I knew it would pick up, Zephyr Song FTW.

Just note 'abertom', that you are copying the computer tracklistings from the presenters pages. Not all of the tracks have been listed in this way, Deadmau5 - I Remember, being a track played by Fearne that isn't listed, to name just one.

and Glee - Don't Stop Believin...

noticing the times, I think he can see into the future as it says 1:00PM-4:00PM here :P

Isn't this list exactly the same, except it is updated in real-time? I assume this is what you mean by 'slightly'.

I believe that when songs are played from the computer and tagged, they automatically appear on Last FM (here's the RSS feed for it http://ws.audioscrobbler.com/1.0/user/bbcradio1/recenttracks.rss?limit=100, but you can access it from the website like the link you posted too)

Then, once a show on Radio 1 has finished, the songs played between the times that the show has run are automatically added to the presenter's page.

Unfortunately, sometimes tracks aren't tagged, which is annoying if you are trying to find out the name of the track!

    • OJ Borg is in for Trevor Nelson on the Rhythm Nation tonight (with Phill Williams on overnight). He's also in for Michael Ball for the next two Sundays (12th and 19th May). Ros Atkins (BBC's Analysis editior) is in for Jeremy Vine on Thursday. Another new name to Radio 2 is Oliver Hides from BBC Radio Wales. He sat in for Owain Wynn Evans yesterday and he's in again this Thursday (9th May) and Bank Holiday Monday (27th)
    • Thought they would make it easier to get to this event. There's been no communication from the council or organisers about travel, even though there's talk of train strikes. Smaller councils have done a better job. 
    • They do sound good together, but I'm not sure Rylan will want the extra commitments. 
    • I have accepted Chris is unlikely to join Scott's show, and that Chappers has moved on, but I still think he could do with a co-host. The most logical solution, I think, is Rylan. He appears more often on his show than not, and they are great together. Radio 2 could lose Rylan's Saturday show and extend his reach by appearing during the week. I think they'd be great!
    • Tattoo took a while to grow on me. I couldn't see the fuss until weeks after. We have a split household here where the war on Gaza is overshadowing an enjoyment. I'm hoping for a protest of some sort. 
    • I've heard that the staging is very impressive.  That and him being "known" might prevent an embarrassing result.  I'm a terrible judge of Eurovision though as Tattoo is still so very meh to me.
    • Feels like after the success of Sam Ryder we are going back to our old ways. Olly Alexander's song is pretty weak. Anyone fancy our chances this year? 
    • The more time goes on the more you think if they'd actually put some thought into it it should've been Vick & Katie from the start. A proven pairing and Katie ended up on the show anyway - whereas Katie's even mentioned she was only asked to join after the Jamie announcement And even by Going Home standards on time off, it's quite funny that a few months in we still haven't had a full week of the supposed line-up - and that's with a 4-day week.  
    • I heard something about what is your favourite wood? Wtf 😂
    • Was the same vibe on the Easter Monday show they did too. Just random questions and the like…. Katie is definitely the glue around making the show listenable. 
    • Vick and Jamie together are quite… awkward. Random discussion seems to be at an all time high without Katie. Maybe it’s just that there’s a lack of features today.
    • Jamie not even knowing about the big weekend day and the fact he starts the show at 14:00 just says everything.
    • I still haven’t forgiven Radio 1 for signing Laing. Vick and Jordan was good, you could hear the chemistry on air 
    • I just want to add though that I am beginning to enjoy the show a bit more now that it’s settled in - I think Jamie (when he’s there) has calmed down a bit and then the new features that have been progressively added over the last couple of weeks have been good too.    I still don’t think it’s a patch on Vick and Jordan together, but it is now a show that seems like it could have legs into the future and once Matt and Mollie start in July, I could see myself sticking with R1 all afternoon.
    • I think it’s a slimmer line-up and seems to fall short in previous years where it seemed almost double that I know Raye is booked to perform and is a headline name. I think the issue with a station like capital they are dealing with a rather lacklustre year for pop and theres no real big pulls for pop festivals that are an easy sell out right now. I think Capital has had seen it’s Capital Ball’s as for any generic pop music listener I don’t know whether Bradley Simpson, Aitch and Paul Russel have the universality to play in a stadium even Sugababes think it would be better if they chosen a smaller outdoor location or Wembley arena.
